Cabinets make plans Iunior and Senior groups book proms, activities Colette Miller Staff wo very impor- tant organiza- tions at Mills are junior and Senior Cabinets. They are impor- tant because junior Cabi- net is in charge of plans for the junior-Senior prom, and Senior Cabinet de- cides what to leave to the school. Senior Cabinet spon- sors, Mrs. Green, Mrs. Hightower, and Mrs. El- der, helped them organize activities for the seniors. Getting a date, time, and a place for everyone's con- venience was sometimes quite tedious. They man- aged to work out things through weeks of plan- ning and organizing. Clo- ing to the McClellan pa- rade to cheer for Mills took extratimefor thestu- dents to organize. This year, Mrs. High- tower has tried to work outalot of senior activities with Mr. Barnes and we have planned a lot of fun stuff for the seniors, Cheryl Lancaster said. Many changes have tak- en place this year with the new principal. Instead of holding graduation practice at Barton Coli- seum, seniors practiced on the football field be- cause they didn't have the funds to rent the whole coliseum. In the past, going to celebrate after practice was fa- vored. Things were modified, but still en- joyed. Talking with the principal and voicing concerns helped every- one feel better about the decision. Seniors have an I believe it's been a fun year with the Crea tive and energetic people. . . opportunity to be heard in Senior Cabinet. I think we're doing a good job working with Mr. Barnes considering the changes we have had to endure. I believe it's been a fun year with the creative and energetic people we have on Senior Cabinet, Chuck Ferrell said. The energetic people of junior Cabinet spend 90 Organizations hours upon hours picking, choosing, and making plansfor thelunior-Senior prom. Above all, they spend much of their time swamped in fund raisers. They sell candy-grams for important holidays, along with Ozark Mountain suckers. Seeing a junior Cabinet member bogged down with a sack of suck- ers and an envelope full of candygrams wasn't unusu- al especially during the Christmas season. They are always busy doing something around the school, and for the school. I wanted to be on Iu- nior Cabinet because I have a chance to partici- pate in choosing things for prom, and I wanted to get more involved in school activities besidesjust com- ing and working, Yo- londa Tenpenny said. Senior and junior Cabi- nets worked together and did many things that af- fected the school as a whole. Dedication to the clubs made them success- ful and helpful to all stu- dents.
